MCMC

This repository focuses on the following two problemx:

Estimate cosmological parameters from supernova Ia data using the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) random walk algorithms.
Used the same algorithm analyse data from photographic plates from Eddington’s 1919 eclipse expedition in order to determine whether the data favors Newtonian gravity or Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity.
